About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Inditex’s Sales To Surpass Pre-Covid-19 Levels In 2020 And 2021 Despite Supply-Chain Difficulties

Inditex ITX 4.91 percent SA, Zara’s owner, reported an 80 percent boost in quarterly profits on Wednesday after the coronavirus pandemic receded.

Inditex’s sales will surpass pre-Covid-19 levels in 2020 and 2021 despite supply-chain difficulties and growing inflation in the retail sector.

A profit of €760 million ($814.8 million) was declared for the three months ending April 30 by Massimo Dutti and Bershka owner Bershka. Revenues grew by 36% to €6.7 billion in comparison to the same period the previous year.

Inditex attributed its strong sales to improved retail traffic in all of its global markets, except China and Russia, and Ukraine, save for the United States.

An 8 percent drop in the firm’s first-quarter online revenues is forecast even though online sales are predicted to increase to 30 percent of total sales by 2024.

Even though China’s major cities have been forced to shut down due to Covid-19 lockdowns in recent months, just four Inditex stores remained locked once the country reopened.

Inditex’s quarterly profits would have been significantly higher if the business had decided to close its stores in Russia and Ukraine after Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine in February. Russia, a key market for Inditex, has been closed.

According to Inditex, the political unrest in Russia and Ukraine has prompted the firm to close over 10% of its global locations.

It didn’t matter since sales in May and early June were up 17% from the same period in 2013, suggesting the next quarter would be just as strong.

Despite supply chain blockages and raw material shortages, Inditex says its inventory levels rose this year compared to last year. Because Inditex’s supply network is based in Europe and the Middle East, it has been insulated from the Asian troubles that have plagued other retailers.
